Violence against Asian women is taking a toll. Six Asian women shot in atl, an 80+ yr old woman set on fire in nyc, an elderly Asian woman shoved and killed in Manhattan (feb), a young woman assaulted in sf last week for “China virus” (according to the attacker/attempted rapist). Have had men spit on my face in the street and yell “China” at me in NY and SF in the past year and none of my white friends seem to realize it’s an issue. Trying to raise awareness but it’s exhausting.

White people hate talking about race all the time and get defensive as if their the victim. Hang in there OP. I’m a black woman and I will always have solidarity for the Asian community. Get your companies talking about it, if you can’t get your friend circle. At Accenture we recently had and African American and Asian/Pacific Islander ERG meeting to discuss the recent hate crimes. Apply pressure ALWAYS

It is awful, OP. I agree. We should all support the Asian community and call racism out.
